I think you misunderstood my question.
Recruiters reaching out to hire experienced professionals can be to:
A) Replace lost talent (retirement/RIF/quit)
B) Plussing up personnel for new contracts/increased workload
I was trying to gauge why I was being contacted and if the company/culture was stable or not.
Of course they are. Seriously, you're asking this? You belong at Honeywell.
This is all very interesting.
I was recently contacted by a company recruiter about a high level engineering position at the Clearwater location and figured I'd do some research about how the company and site were doing.
Sounds like they might be trying to fill more senior/leadership technical roles because the older guard are getting let go?
Defense needs many many heads, why would anyone be riffed from there??? Heard people working 80 hr weeks and they are looking to get more people.
I was told Space should be safe from involuntary RIFs due to the fact that they are currently looking to hire..... if I get any confirmation of anything different, I will post it.
Here was an interview with Darius
Q: How is the crisis affecting some of your your core business segments, especially aerospace?
A: The air transport segment obviously is impacted the most because it’s tied to air travel and production of new aircraft. Business aviation is depressed as well. The third segment, which has been fairly resilient, is defense and space. We expect to see growth in that segment even this year.
If it was so resilient why do layoffs??? Not going to grow with no employees to do the work.
Defense not sure about space
Which organization?
